Trauma Insurance

Unfortunately, experiencing a trauma such as serious illness or injury at least once in your life is more common than you might think. Trauma insurance is designed to provide financial support, for example medical treatment and rehabilitation costs, if your client or their child were to face one of these events.

Our trauma insurance options

AIA Living Critical Conditions

Traditional trauma insurance, designed to pay a one-off lump sum if your client suffers from a range of defined medical conditions. Partial payments can also be offered for non-life threatening conditions. The payment can be spent however they like, whether it be covering medical treatment and rehabilitation costs, or providing financial breathing space.

This can be taken out for Personal or Business purposes.

AIA Living Progressive Care

Innovative trauma insurance that allows your client to make multiple claims, based on the severity of their illness or injury. Claim payments are linked to the severity of the condition: the more serious it is, the bigger the payment. They'll be covered for a range of defined medical conditions across five categories: Cancer, Heart and Arteries, Brain and Nerves, Loss of Function, and Other Health Events.

This can be taken out for Personal or Business purposes.
